3D Design & Modelling
What's it all about?
3D Modelling and Design teaches students to create digital objects using specialised software and turn them into real items using 3D printers. They learn to develop accurate, functional models while exploring key design and engineering principles such as precision, tolerances, and movement mechanisms like hinges. This subject supports creativity, problem-solving, and practical application by bridging digital design with real-world manufacturing.
What type of things will I do?
Learning about designing for 3D printing, creating your own designs in CAD, and then printing your designs using the 3D printers
